Sorry rogermevans do you work for Virgin Media?

all the companies i have mentioned previously (apart form Virgin) conduct these checks as well as gain references from previous employers. If the checks are not (to quote) "worth the paper they are written on" then why are they used by police recruitment candidates, local councils and all the big companies out there.

As far as employing somebody at a nursary you would have to CRB them and gain satisfactory references from their previous employer?!

As far as it being easy to catch those selling on DD details I think you are wrong.We have all seen the stuff on TV where this happens and it is happening today. Should we not be reducing the risk rather than act after the horse has bolted?
